Public Engagement

This page is used to gather public feedback, views, and opinions on different ideas and proposals within the community.  Please see below for all current topics the Town is seeking resident involvement on.

Short-Term Vacation Rentals - Licensing, Rules, Regulations

Short-term rental is not defined in the Town of Plympton-Wyoming's Zoning By-law 93 of 2007, but in general terms can be defined as: 
'All or part of a legally established Dwelling that operates or offers a place of temporary residence, lodging or occupancy by way of a rental agreement or similar commercial transaction for a period of less than thirty (30) consecutive nights throughout all or any part of a calendar year.'

 

Short-term rentals (ie. Airbnb's or VRBO's) are currently not licensed, regulated, or restricted within the Town of Plympton-Wyoming.  The Town is actively reviewing policies to see if current regulations should remain, or if restrictions should be placed on short-term rentals. 

 

Short-Term Rental Open-Houses

The Town of Plympton-Wyoming will be holding open-houses to help understand the community's wants and needs regarding short-term rentals. The open-houses will be an opportunity for residents, short-term rental owners and users, business owners, and visitors to ask questions and have their thoughts heard. Open-houses will be held at the Camlachie Community Centre, 6767 Camlachie Road, Camlachie, ON, N0N 1E0. Light refreshments will be provided. 

Tuesday, June 20th, 2023- 2:00 p.m. - 4:00 p.m. & 5:30 p.m. - 7:30 p.m.

Tuesday, July 18th, 2023 - 2:00 p.m. - 4:00 p.m. & 5:30 p.m. - 7:30 p.m.

 

The open-houses will provide stakeholders an opportunity to:

  • ask questions you would like answered at a future meeting
  • voice concerns or support regarding the possibility of licensing short-term vacation rentals
  • voice any rules or regulations you would like to see if licensing was imposed
  • observe to learn more about short-term vacation rentals

 

Feedback from the survey and open-house will be used to help determine if short-term vacation rental licensing is desirable in the community and help shape a licensing program, if there is support for such
a program. Please refer to this page for additional details as they become available.
